Subtract 13 from both sides
-5x = -17 - 13
Simplify -17 - 13 to -30
-5x = -30
Divide both sides by -5
x = -30/-5
Two negatives make a positive
x = 30/5
Simplify 30/5 to 6
<u>x = 6</u>
$16.75
because $134 divided by 8 hours = $16.75 per hour
Answer:
can't see anything in this photo because this photo is not clear
Answer:
3/2 x +1 = 5/4x - 5
3/2 x+1 =5/4
x−5
Step 1: Subtract 5/4x from both sides.
3/2 x+1−5/4
x=5
4x−5−5/4x
1/4x+1=−5
Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides.
1/4x+1−1=−5−1
1/4
x=−6
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 4.
4*(1/4x)=(4)*(−6)
x=−24 Mary has 24 shells
Answer:
-x=−24
x = 24 shells
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2 3/4 x 16 = 44 + 6 = 50 shells x= 16
2 3/4 x 24 = 66 + 6 = 72 x = 24
We see the side workings in bold as if Mary has 24 and Nancy has 1x more
Then Nancy 24+24 = 48 where Gracie 5 x 24 = 120 and we have 72-48 = 24 and 120-72 = 48 being the same as Nancy. You can ignore or check the rest in explanation.
2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 + 6 = 55 1/2 x= 18
2. 2 3/4 x 16 = 44 -4 = 40 shells x = 16 2 3/4 x 24 = 66 - 4 = 62 x = 24
2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 - 4 = 45 1/2 x = 18
3. 2 3/4 x 16 = 44 + 4 = 48 shells x = 16 2 3/4 x 24 = 66 + 4 = 70 x = 24
2 3/4 x 18 = 49 1/2 + 4 =53 1/2 x = 18
